My Husband Wants An Open Marriage
“I had no clue Ryan was your husband. Julie, if I had known, I would’ve handled things differently.”

“Whoa, hold on,” I say quickly, stepping further away from the restaurant door. “Why are we pulling the plug? This can still work.”
“Work?” Her voice rises. “How, Luke? How is this supposed to work now that you’re partnering with my husband? Do you hear how insane this is?”
